Long Tran, Russell Hassan and Darwin Baluran examine how perceived racial discrimination relates to political and community civic engagement among people of Asian descent after COVID-19.

Gender Differences in Workplace Incivility Experiences and Their Impacts on the Wellbeing and Retention of Women in Law Enforcement Organizations
Policing: A Journal of Policy and Practice
2024

Jill Davis, Russell Hassan and colleagues examine higher rates of workforce incivility reports from policewomen versus policemen. Policewomen also report heightened emotional exhaustion and express a greater intention to leave their current positions than policemen.

Characterizing prescription opioid, heroin, and fentanyl initiation trajectories: A qualitative study
Social Science & Medicine
2024

Tasha Perdue describes opioid initiation within each of the three waves from the perspective of people who use illicit opioids, with a focus on emerging pathways into fentanyl use.

Life Cycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions of CO2-Enabled Sedimentary Basin Geothermal
Environmental Science & Technology
2024

Jeff Bielicki's 50th peer-reviewed publication of his career, he was a part of an investigation into the net effects on CO2 emissions of using CO2 from various sources (e.g., natural gas power plants) to produce geothermal heat while isolating that CO2 from the atmosphere.

Ukraine's parliament in war: the impact of Russia's invasion on the Verkhovna Rada's ability and efforts to legislate reforms and join the European Union
The Theory of Practice of Legislation
2024

Dean Trevor Brown and Founding Director Charles Wise published a study of the impact of Russia's invasion on the changing political dynamics that spurred Ukraine's Parliament to pursue compliance with EU requirements.

Journal of Cleaner Production
2023

Jeff Bielicki establishes a computational approach for environmental lifecycle assessment that considers processes, economic flows, and multiple regions

Analytical solutions to evaluate the geothermal energy generation potential from sedimentary-basin reservoirs
Geothermics
2023

In this study, Jeff Bielicki and colleagues develop and implement analytical solutions for calculating reservoir impedance, reservoir heat depletion, and wellbore heat loss in sedimentary reservoirs that are laterally extensive, homogeneous, horizontally isotropic and have uniform thickness.

A Potential for Climate Benign Direct Air CO2 Capture with CO2-Driven Geothermal Utilization and Storage (DACCUS)
Environmental Research Letters
2023

This article from Jeff Bielicki establishes a strategy that uses carbon dioxide to extract carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, as part of a portfolio of approaches to mitigate climate change.
